“Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything” (Plato). Music, is the only art form you can’t physically touch. Yet, it’s the only art form that can truly touch you. It can help you feel no pain and make you lose sense of reality until the music stops. I’m positive everybody on this planet has one that one song that picks them up when they are down. That one song that moves you to the beat during a workout. That one song that helps make everything better. That one song that makes me lose my sense of reality, picks me up when I’m down, is “Stan” by Marshall Mathers (Eminem). “Stan” is by far one of Eminem’s greatest songs ever made, it’s one of the songs that made him so popular. I don’t listen to rap but I love listening to “Stan.” It’s one of the deepest songs written and produced by Eminem. This song goes really in-depth about love, suicide, depression, obsession, and murder. I am choosing to interpret this song so you can see it from my point of view.
Stan, is the main character from the song he’s a crazy obsessed fan of Eminem. At one point in the song it shows Stan writing a letter to Eminem, he has pictures of Eminem plastered all over his wall. A second part that makes Stan so obsessed is he dyed his hair blond like Eminem’s in the song too. In the first few verses of the song this person “Stan” is a big fan of Eminem and......

...Interpretation is an important component as a means of influencing or even changing environmental attitudes and/or behaviour of visitors to protected areas. The two important components are communicating ideas and enriching visitor experiences. This essay will define interpretation and discuss the effectiveness of interpretation as a means of influencing or even changing environmental attitudes and/or behaviour of visitors to protected areas and evaluate the roles of tourism and environmental agencies in managing & controlling the impacts of tourism in protected areas. For the purpose of this research more visitor-focused definition will be used.
Definition of Interpretation
There are two ways to describe interpretation. The first would be listing the forms of interpretation. For example: information centre, guide walk and tour, guidebook, brochures and signs or pamphlets that provide information of the protected areas The example given above could be suggested that interpretation incorporates all the various ways in which organizer seek to communicate with their visitors. It is also sometimes refer to as visitors’ education.
Recently interpretation has been use as a recognized element of other types of attraction such as theme parks. The increase usage of interpretive activities reflects growing competition between attractions and increasing expectations from visitors. (Harris, 2005) Given the wide range of places where interpretation is used, it is not surprising to...

STATURORY INTERPRETATION
LITERAL RULE
This rule explains every word as an ordinary dictionary meaning. The aim of the court is to find the Parliament intentions when a word is used. Taken from: www.school-portal.co.uk
In Sam´s case the selling of fish and chips and soft drinks can be defined as an invitation to treat which means that there is an offer which can be accepted or rejected by the offeree. In the present case exist a group of similarities regarding the case of Fisher V Bell (1960) in which it was argued that display and knife was an invitation to treat. Taking into account the definitions and parameter of the literal rule Sam is not guilty or convicted of the offence; according to this rule, the literal meaning has to be followed to obtain a complete understanding of the case and the situation.
GOLDEN RULE
This rule is an improvement of the literal rule which let at words into the proper context of those who are solving the case. The golden rule requires that the meaning of the words used in the study of the case need to have only one meaning offering the simplest signification unless when they are not applied it can be produce a misunderstanding and inconvenience. In this......

...Unit 1 – Section A - Statutory Interpretation
Approaches to Interpretation
The Literal Rule
Under this rule, the courts will give words their plain, ordinary or literal meaning, even if the result is not very sensible.
“If the words in an act are clear, then you must follow them even though they lead to a manifest absurdity.” (R v Judge of the City of London Court)
Examples:
(Whiteley v Chapel) – D charged under a section which made it an offence to impersonate any person entitled to vote. D impersonated someone who was on voting list but was deceased. D was not guilty as the person is dead they are not literally entitled to vote.
(London and North Eastern Railways Co v Berriman) – Unable to claim when husband was killed whilst carrying out maintenance work oiling railway track. Statue said a look out should be provided when relaying or repairing the track. Words relaying and rapairing were given the literal meaning and didn’t cover maintenance.
The Golden Rule
It takes the literal meaning but the court is allowed to avoid interpretation which would lead to an absurd result.
There are 2 views on how the golden rule should be used 1) the narrow application and 2) the wider application
1) Narrow application – if a word has more than one meaning, you can choose between them
In Jones v DPP if a word had more than one meaning “You can choose between those meanings but beyond this you cannot go”.
Examples:
(R v Allen) – Example of narrow application

...There is five processes brought into play during dream-work: displacement, condensation, symbolization, projection, and secondary revision.
Did you ever awaken from a particularly vivid dream to find yourself having trouble, shaking the eerie, feeling it left behind? Was the dream simply the residue of your hectic day or something far more significant? Dream has always been a fascinating topic. I chose to know more about it because we are living in a world where our mind is a crucial part of our body. At night, we do not really comprehend how our mind works. When we are sleeping, we see images in our dreams sometimes stories or even the future. How does it all work? Where are those images coming from? Sigmund Freud in his book “ Interpretation of Dreams”, states that the dream is composed of two parts; the manifest and the latent content. The manifest content can be thought of as what a person would remember as soon as they wake what they would consciously describe to someone else when recalling the dream. Freud suggested that the manifest content possessed no meaning whatsoever because it was a disguised representation of the true thought underlying the dream. On the other hand, the latent content holds the true meaning of the dream, the forbidden thoughts and the unconscious desires. These appear in the manifest content but will be disguised and unrecognizable. Although in rare cases the manifest and latent content can be indistinguishable (Freud referred to these as......

...The Interpretation of Dreams Sigmund Freud (1900)
PREFACE TO THE THIRD EDITION
Wheras there was a space of nine years between the first and second editions of this book, the need of a third edition was apparent when little more than a year had elapsed. I ought to be gratified by this change; but if I was unwilling previously to attribute the neglect of my work to its small value, I cannot take the interest which is now making its appearance as proof of its quality. The advance of scientific knowledge has not left The Interpretation of Dreams untouched. When I wrote this book in 1899 there was as yet no "sexual theory," and the analysis of the more complicated forms of the psychoneuroses was still in its infancy. The interpretation of dreams was intended as an expedient to facilitate the psychological analysis of the neuroses; but since then a profounder understanding of the neuroses has contributed towards the comprehension of the dream. The doctrine of dream-interpretation itself has evolved in a direction which was insufficiently emphasized in the first edition of this book. From my own experience, and the works of Stekel and other writers, [1] I have since learned to appreciate more accurately the significance of symbolism in dreams (or rather, in unconscious thought). In the course of years, a mass of data has accumulated which demands consideration. I have endeavored to deal with these innovations by interpolations in the text and

...full of various kinds of stylistic devices and that makes his story more vivid and picturesque.
The subject of the extract is the inner world of a writer that sometimes is difficult to understand for other people. Not every talented writer can express everything he wants, in many cases he is afraid to be misunderstood.
As for conflict, it is the conflict between Walter Streeter and his inner world. After analyzing the text it becomes clear that the main idea is that people should be self-confident, not very shy and self-conscious as Walter Streeter. There are many people in our world and every of us want to be the first. And if a person would always be self-conscious he has very low chances to have his feet firm on the ground.

..."Living Like Weasels" is a journey into the way human beings might live contrasted with the thoughts of how weasels live. In this beautifully written essay, Dillard describes her chance encounter with an ordinary weasel and how it helped her receive understanding into the difference between the way human beings live their lives and the way wild animals go about theirs. She does this by offering up vivid descriptions and images concerning her quick, but thought provoking run in with the reclusive weasel. Dillard is attempting to show us that we can discover a lot about the true way to live by observing nature's other creations. Yet, at the same time telling us that the way we live is totally up to us, which leads me to my personal interpretation.
One could argue humans that lived during the Neanderthal period were similar to that of a weasel. Throughout time the mental capacity of the human has grown to be far more complex and sophisticated than earlier times. With that being said the weasel as we know acts off of pure instinct, whereas the human mind needs to process and articulate each move we make. People often search a definite answer on how to live their lives, as if there is a road map or instructions that will lead you to resolution. Actually, the truth is we, humans, are blessed with an ability that separates us from any other creature; the capacity to intelligently choose to live as we please, instead of how we were created to.

...The Doll Interpretation
The belief that a person’s childhood experiences have a long lasting effect on that person’s psychological development is commonly held by professionals and masses alike. The colloquial term “daddy issues” implies that the early absence of a father figure in a female’s life is to blame for later promiscuity and trust issues in romantic relationships. Although the effects are not always severe, a child’s adolescent environment and experiences continue to affect his or her subconscious well into adulthood. In Edna O’Brien’s short story, The Doll, O’Brien utilizes religious allusion and a detached point of view to illustrate the effects that a repressive Irish Catholic childhood had on her narrator.
O’Brien’s subtle use of religious allusion conveys to the reader the ideals of the narrator’s childhood society that have been ingrained into the minds of its members. The narrator describes her victimization by her teacher as being “a cruel cross to bear” (O’Brien 49). This allusion to the crucifixion identifies the narrator as a Christ-like character, contrasting the teacher, playing the role of Pontius Pilate, who acted out of fear of losing power. This description further elucidates the ideology of the society to associate any suffering as a Christ-like sacrifice and falls in character for the pristine little girl, constantly plagued by the “cruelty and stupidity” of her world, to use this description to excuse the ways of her teacher (O’Brien 54).......

...Statutes would be interpreted frequently by courts in modern time, Owing to the defect of ambiguity or language in legal terms, defect of statutes. Some amount of interpretation is necessary when the word of statute is ambiguity, sometimes, the content of statutes have a straightforward meaning. But the ambiguity of the words in the statutes must be solved by courts, it is true that have some ambiguity or have a unclear meaning of statutes' words in most case. Statutory interpretation allows the judge to have a clear meaning of what is meant by the statutes. Hence, statutory interpretation is an important process when the case is judging by court and courts would seek to interpret the statutes at full steam.
In the modern legal system, there are four general approaches to construe statutes that are respectively the golden rule, the literal rule, the purposive approach and the mischief rule. The quoted statement by Lord Denning means, when statute is interpreting, the judge need to understand the entire content of statutes and ascertain the intention of Parliament that better than reading different section of statues and to understand them separately, or words by words. In other words, Lord Denning said that by applying purposive approach better than literal rule. We need to understand and ascertain the meaning of four approaches before discussing the statement by Lord Denning.
Whichever approaches or rules may be applied by court, giving a clear meaning of particular......

...Statutory interpretation is process of interpreting statutes by the judges. The definition of statutes have had very specific words but indeed the judges would still need the statutory interpretation to help them. The reason of this, even how, the words in the statutes are specific but sometimes the words contains ambiguity and vagueness in words. On top of that, each word could give us different meaning. For example, we can find in the Oxford Dictionary where a word would contain at least one meaning. Hence, without the statutory interpretation, a lot of judges would have trouble in deciding their judgments in deciding a case. This essay will analyse the four rules, intrinsic aids and extrinsic aids and presumptions in the interpretation of statutes.
There are four different rules of interpretation in English law which are the literal rule, the golden rule, the mischief rule and the purposive rule/approach. Each rule take different approaches and some judges prefer to use one rule while other judges prefer another rule.
Traditionally, the English courts have taken a literal approach to the interpretation of statutes. The Literal Rule is the cornerstone of this approach. The literal rule requires the courts to give the words of a statute their plain meaning. It is for a court to interpret Parliament’s intention from what it has actually said – not from what it thinks it meant to say. This can produce some surprising results as, in practice, words seldom have a single......

...Interpretation Project 1
Step 1: What is the central message of each episode? |
Matthew 24:36–44 | Matthew 24:45–51 | Matthew 25:1–13 |
The point of this episode is that the Lord will come back and no one but God the father will no when. Not even the Angels will know. We will not know the hour that he will come. We are to be ready at all times for his return, for he will return at a time we would not expect. | This episode talks about Christians as servants to the Lords house. It teaches that we are to remain diligent in his teachings and always be prepared. We are not to give up on his return and given in to evil ways. He has told us that when he returns will be a surprise. | This episode continues to emphasize being prepared at all times. It also lets us know that we must be prepared ourselves that others cannot be prepared for us. We must not tarry or take lightly God requires of us. |
Step 2: What is the gospel writer trying to communicate to his readers by the way he connects the 3 stories together? |
Matt 24:36–44; Matt 24:45–51; Matt 25:1–13 The connection appears to be clear. The writer connects that the coming of Jesus is going to happen. We won’t know when, but it will happen. No matter what we do we, are to stay prepared, stay faithful, be vigilent. Jesus will return and we won’t know when. If we are not prepared we will miss out. We will be left behind. The first part establishes that he is coming. “The elect of God are scattered......

...Nighthawks Interpretation
Nighthawks has inspired many illustrators to write and inspire. The characters present in the painting form a sort of interplay, but still give the feeling of isolation and loneliness. The painting offers a viewer a series of tantalizing series of mysteries, and urges them get creative and solve them. Every fiction inspired from this painting has evolved around the four pivotal characters present in the painting, so does my interpretation. A fan of science fictions and fantasy novels, I have modeled my interpretation while taking inspiration from them. As they say a picture is worth a thousand words, here is my nearly thousand words inspired by Hooper’s Nighthawks.

I still remember this night like yesterday, as I passed by the corner of a Subway that used to be one of my favorite diners in Greenwich village+. The one with the big curved window, it’s not there anymore, of course. But back in 1972 it was a diner, one of the best in the whole of New York, well in my opinion, and an unforgettable monument of my mysterious memory.
It was a usual late night working at the Gazette, and as always Phillies was open all night long. I was sitting in my usual seat finishing my cup of coffee and waiting for Phil to come up with my slice of ham and cheese quiche. Phil made good coffee and decent subs, but boy, did he make the best pie.
It was just me and Phil, late on a Tuesday night when this couple walked in. The fella was wearing a......

Extrinsic aids are matters which may help put an Act into context. Sources include previous Acts of Parliament on the same topic, earlier case law, dictionaries of the time, and the historical setting. In addition, Hansard can now be considered. Hansard is the official report of what was said in Parliament when the Act was debated. The use of Hansard was permitted following the decision in Pepper (Inspector of Taxes) v Hart (1993) where the House of Lords accepted that Hansard could be used in a limited way. It permits Hansard to be used where the legislation is ambiguous or obscure or leads to an absurdity, and the material relied on comprises one or more statements by a Minister or other promoter of the Bill and such other parliamentary material as is necessary to understand the statements, and the effect and the statements that were relied on have to be......
